The minute is a special place, unseen microcosms within a unseen universe bind us together.
Our creative vision is to continue our conversation with the Macro Kingdom.. an ongoing poem
in the tradition of the two previous films.
So, what is it about the scaled down infinate? certainly not unappreciable.. as you can see and hear..
we bring to life, forms, shapes, ideas.. We bring to life your attention... This regal landscape of atomic proportion.
The sounds, created from found objects, the camera capturing moments in detail too easy to ignore.
brought to your attention by Clemens Wirth, and crafted sonically by Radium Audio.. creators of detail - enhanced listening experts.

Micro Empire
...moving on from Macro Kingdom, we pass through the portal of a microscope to venture into the Micro Empire ... surrounding us … inhabiting us …
Stranger than fiction… molecular conflict and mitochondrial warfare … a heartstopping, subcellular epic … a truly microcinematic experience …
“as an enthusiast for little things, I wanted to go deeper than the macro universe, so I found myself hanging on the eyepiece of a microscope. The real challenge was definitely the small depth of field in microscopy. It’s really fascinating how detailed this tiny world is, and unbelievable how much is going on in only one little water drop.”

Bucephala clangula
(Sorry for poor resolution...was far away and was using old film.)
Male, for some reason, was swimming like this (low in the water). (Note there are no "spots" along upper part of white section of wing, making this B. clangula instead of B. islandica).
